Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 1648 - 870: Divine Palace_2

Li Shiming possessed the IBMz15, a presence that could maintain calm analysis and judgment under any circumstance, allowing him to escape the fate of consciousness implantation.

The following chimes still shook his soul, but had no other effect; the consciousness implantation within the chimes no longer affected him.

He let out a long sigh of relief; the consciousness implantation didn’t forcefully load too strong a negative state, indicating that there wasn’t significant hostility here. It seemed more like an exhortation for those who entered.

Thinking of exhortations, Li Shiming suddenly thought of the transporter ring. Perhaps the transporter ring was some kind of credential, which was why there was no hostility towards him here, and instead, they used such a relatively gentle method.

He inspected his transporter ring, finding that the spatial energy inside had been depleted and was slowly absorbing spatial energy from the void.

His Divine Sense entered the transporter ring and discovered that the original coordinates inside had changed to another set of coordinates.

When he focused his Divine Sense on the spatial coordinates, he seemed to see the area on the Dongqi Continent where he had activated the transporter ring.

He understood that once the transporter ring’s spatial energy was replenished, he could use it to return to the Dongqi Continent.

This discovery put his mind at ease. With this method to return, if this place was indeed dangerous, he would find a spot to enter the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven, and keep cultivating until the transporter ring was recharged with spatial energy before coming out again.

He monitored the speed at which the transporter ring absorbed spatial energy, and considering the spatial energy originally stored, he sadly found it would take twenty years for the transporter ring to regain its spatial energy.

He attempted to channel the spatial energy from the Divine Foot Skill into the transporter ring, only to discover that the ring did not accept this spatial energy.

To be honest, the spatial energy inside the transporter ring was purer, higher in grade by several levels than the spatial energy of his Divine Foot Skill.

So the transporter ring preferred absorbing spatial energy from the void rather than from Li Shiming’s Divine Foot Skill. Perhaps absorbing the spiritual energy from the Divine Foot Skill required an additional conversion process, a function not designed by the ring’s creator.

With newfound confidence, Li Shiming resumed climbing the white jade steps.

At last, he reached the end of the white jade steps, arriving at a white jade platform.

Standing upon the white jade platform, he saw the majestic palace ahead, and it was only by standing before it that he understood the palace’s magnificence.

The palace seen through ’Divine Eyesight’ wasn’t the same as the palace in reality, presumably because ’Divine Eyesight’ was affected by some force field here.

When he arrived in front of the palace, its threshold reached his waist; he could hardly imagine what sort of existence this palace belonged to.

The palace doors exceeded thirty meters in height, and he couldn’t recognize the material used, but its quality was undoubtedly of the fourth-grade top level.

The mere gates, the value of such massive fourth-grade top material, were beyond imagination as a simple door.

On these gates were embedded many copper studs, forming a peculiar formation.

Li Shiming observed this formation; although it differed from the formations in his Array Formation Starlight Sea and the IBMz15 database, IBMz15, after analysis, concluded that this formation was the method to open the gates.

Just as he was about to activate the formation to open the gates, he suddenly stopped his actions.

He looked back in surprise; six cultivators were ascending the white jade steps onto the platform.

"Are there cultivators here?" He hadn’t expected such a thing, and secretly prepared himself.

All six cultivators were Peak Great Cultivators, but their aura was strange, completely different from Great Cultivators Li Shiming had encountered before.

Among them, three Great Cultivators practiced Righteous Path cultivation techniques, and the other three practiced Demon Cultivation techniques, keeping themselves separate yet vigilant as they walked.

Li Shiming noted that there were no cultivators beyond the Great Cultivator Realm and felt relieved.

No matter how strong these six Peak Great Cultivators were, they wouldn’t affect him.

However, he was quite curious about the origin of these six Peak Great Cultivators, as he had never heard of them in the Cultivation World.

Though he came from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, a large power, his social network was vast. Additionally, his avatar Li Yuanba was at the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, and together they knew quite a number of Peak Great Cultivators.

Even if he didn’t know some Peak Great Cultivators, he had at least seen portraits or read relevant information.

He could say with certainty that these six Peak Great Cultivators do not belong to any continent in his Cultivation World.

Training Peak Great Cultivators could only be achieved by superpowers, yet the aura of these six Peak Great Cultivators didn’t match the cultivation techniques of any superpower in the Cultivation World, especially the three devil Great Cultivators. There were very few devil Peak Great Cultivators in the Cultivation World; it was impossible for three to appear at once.

"There’s actually an extra person entering the Divine Palace this year, and ahead of us too!" One of the righteous Great Cultivators expressed surprise upon seeing Li Shiming.

The other two righteous Great Cultivators sensed Li Shiming’s aura and couldn’t help but smile.

Although they didn’t know Li Shiming, from his aura they could tell he wasn’t a devil cultivator.

The situation was different for the three devil Great Cultivators. Upon seeing Li Shiming, their expressions changed slightly, revealing an imbalance in numbers between the righteous and devil sides, putting the devil side at a disadvantage.

However, they also noticed Li Shiming’s strength had not yet reached Peak Great Cultivator and was still a long way off.

The three devil Great Cultivators exchanged glances, and the thin devil Great Cultivator suddenly lunged towards Li Shiming.

The thin devil Great Cultivator didn’t fly, but crossed a hundred meters with every step as he moved across the ground, reaching Li Shiming in just a few strides.

"Block him!" The three righteous Great Cultivators shouted.

"Fellow, be careful!" warned one of the righteous Great Cultivators loudly.

Li Shiming squinted slightly, deducing many things from the combat style of the thin devil Great Cultivator.

It was confirmed that they couldn’t fly off the ground; not just Peak Great Cultivators, but even ordinary Great Cultivators wouldn’t engage in ground-based combat, a style seldom seen after reaching the Golden Core Stage.

Cultivators at the Golden Core Stage possess the ability to fly with their physical bodies, transitioning the battlefield from ground to sky.

This thin devil Great Cultivator chose ground movement and combat over better tactics, indicating immense danger in the air.

With a wave of his hand, the thin devil Great Cultivator summoned a black mist to envelop Li Shiming.

Clearly, the devil Great Cultivator was confident in his battle prowess, using a secret technique from his demonic array, not even employing a magic treasure, to attack.

Suddenly attacked, Li Shiming activated ten brains simultaneously, triggering ten ’Thunder Fall Skills.’

The Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer flew out from within him, hovering in front of him, while the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’ in the ’Machine Room Space’ fueled the ten ’Thunder Fall Skills,’ boosting their power substantially.

The thin devil Great Cultivator, rushing forth quickly, retreated even faster.

Realizing Li Shiming was using the Thunder Skill, he hesitated not a moment, immediately dodging backward.

He could sense the indescribable power of Li Shiming’s Thunder Skill, something a mid-level Great Cultivator shouldn’t be able to execute, nor even a Thunder Cultivation Peak Master could unleash such terrifying power.

Most terrifying of all, Li Shiming didn’t release just one thunder skill, but a total of ten.
